INSTALLATION

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

THE INSTALLATION

Before you install your stereo, read all

the instructions in this owner’s manu-

al. You should be able to answer all of

these questions about your vehicle’s

electrical and sound systems.

• Which terminal in my vehicle’s

fuse box supplies power even

when the ignition is turned off?

• Which terminal in my vehicle’s

fuse box is for accessories?

• How do I connect a wire to the

fuse box?

Also, be aware that installation in your

vehicle might require cutting or modi-

fying your vehicle.

Place the stereo as close as possible

to the selected mounting location. We

recommend that you install the stereo

by temporarily connecting it to ground

and power, optional components, and

your speakers. Then test the connec-

tions, disconnect the stereo, mount it in

your vehicle, and reconnect it. The in-

structions in this manual are arranged

in this order.

Preparing the Mounting Area

Before you mount the stereo, make

sure you have all the necessary mate-

rials. Then confirm that the stereo fits

your vehicle’s mounting area. This au-

tosound stereo system is a DIN-E size

unit that requires a 2

-inch high by

-inch wide by 7

-inch deep (57 ¥

190 ¥ 186 mm) mounting area.

Note:

If the mounting area is too

large, you might be able to mount the

stereo with an in-dash installation kit,

available at your local RadioShack

store. Follow the installation kit’s in-

structions to mount the stereo.

Cautions:

• Make sure the stereo will not tilt

up more than 30 degrees when it

is mounted.

• Be sure to avoid obstructions be-

hind the mounting surface.

Routing Speaker Wires

If you install speakers, avoid routing

the speaker wires near moving parts

or sharp edges. You can usually route

them along the wiring channel be-

neath the vehicle’s door facings by

carefully removing the molding that

holds the carpet in place. After you

route the speaker wires, replace the

molding.

Removing the Shipping

Screw

The shipping screw helps protect the

stereo’s CD player from being dam-

aged during shipment.

Before you mount the stereo, use a

Phillips screwdriver to remove the

shipping screw from the top of the ste-

reo.

12-2154.fm Page 6 Wednesday, July 14, 1999 3:34 PM

Note: Save the shipping screw in

case you ever want to mail or ship the

stereo. You can secure it to the back

of the stereo with a piece of tape.

MAKING THE

CONNECTIONS

The supplied harness with the 14-pin

connector includes all the lead wires

you need to connect the stereo to

ground, power, some optional compo-

nents, and speakers.

Important: Do not cut these wires. If

you cut any wire, you cannot obtain a

refund or exchange on this product.

However, your local RadioShack store

will provide warranty

service

if you cut

a wire and find the product is defec-

tive.

You might need additional wire, de-

pending on your individual autosound

system, to complete the connections.

Your local RadioShack store carries a

full line of wire and wire management

accessories.

Cautions:

• For added safety and to protect

your stereo, disconnect the cable

from your vehicle battery’s nega-

tive (–) terminal before you begin.

• Be sure your speakers can handle

64 watts of power (16 watts per

channel). Each speaker must

have an impedance of at least 4

ohms. Your local RadioShack

store carries a full line of speak-

ers.

• You must connect the GROUND,

+12V TO IGNITION, and +12V TO

BATTERY wires first, then make

all other connections as described

in the following sections before

you plug the harness with the 14-

pin connector into the stereo. If

you do not make connections in

the order shown, damage to the

stereo is possible if any wire con-

nections are made incorrectly.

• You must connect a separate wire

to each speaker terminal as

described in the following proce-

dure. Do not use a common wire

or chassis ground for any speaker

connection.

(illus)

12-2154.fm Page 7 Wednesday, July 14, 1999 3:34 PM

Note: The wires in the wiring harness

have the following colors and labels.

Using an Adapter Harness

If you are replacing an existing stereo,

or if your vehicle has been factory-

wired for autosound components, you

might be able to use an adapter har-

ness to connect the power and speak-

ers. RadioShack stores sell adapter

harnesses for most vehicles.

Follow the directions that come with

the adapter harness to temporarily

connect the ground, power, optional

components, and speakers. Then go

to “Connecting the Antenna” on

Page 11.

Connecting Ground, Power,

and Optional Components

Follow these steps to connect the har-

ness with the 14-pin connector to

ground, primary and memory backup

power, and optional components.

1. Disconnect the cable from your

vehicle’s negative (

–

) battery ter-

minal.

2. Connect the black ground wire to

a chassis ground, such as a metal

screw attached to a metal part of

the vehicle’s frame. Be sure that

the screw is not insulated from the

chassis by a plastic part.

(illus)

12-2154.fm Page 8 Wednesday, July 14, 1999 3:34 PM

3. Connect the red power wire (with

in-line fuse holder) to a point in

your vehicle’s fuse block that has

power only when you turn the

vehicle’s key to either the acces-

sory (ACC) or START position.

This connection turns on the ste-

reo when you turn on the ignition

or turn the key to ACC, and turns

off the stereo when you turn off

the ignition. This prevents your

vehicle’s battery from being

drained if you leave the stereo on

when you turn off the ignition.

4. Connect the yellow power/mem-

ory wire to your vehicle battery’s

positive (+) terminal or to a point

in your vehicle’s fuse block that

provides a continuous source of

12 volts.

This connection provides power

for the stereo’s components (such

as the CD player), and continuous

power for the stereo’s memory

when the ignition is turned off.

5. Connect the blue/white wire to any

optional equipment, designed to

run from a switched source, that

you want the stereo to turn on and

off (such as a booster or a power

antenna).

This wire does not provide power

to the components. It simply turns

them on or off. If you do not use

this wire, secure it with a wire tie

and do not let it touch metal.

Connecting an Equalizer/

Booster

If you are connecting the stereo to a

separate equalizer or booster, you

need additional wires (not included).

To increase the total power output

from your system, connect the

(right) and

(left) line output jacks on

the back of the stereo and blue/white

wire, if necessary, to the equalizer or

booster.

Check the equalizer/booster’s owner’s

manual for directions.

Connecting Two Pairs of

Speakers

If you are using both front and rear

speakers, follow these steps to con-

nect the harness with the 14-pin con-

nector to the speakers.

12-2154 Onl

Before connecting the

speakers, remove the tape that holds

the mounting sleeve in place and slide

the sleeve off of the stereo. Then set

2CH/4CH

on the bottom of the stereo

4CH

(illus)

12-2154.fm Page 9 Wednesday, July 14, 1999 3:34 PM

1. Connect the gray wire to the right

front speaker’s positive terminal.

This terminal is usually marked

with a plus (+) sign or red mark.

2. Connect the gray/black wire to the

right front speaker’s negative ter-

minal. This terminal might be

marked with a minus (

–

) sign or it

might not be marked at all.

3. Connect the white wire to the left

front speaker’s positive terminal.

4. Connect the white/black wire to

the left front speaker’s negative

terminal.

5. Connect the violet wire to the right

rear speaker’s positive terminal.

6. Connect the violet/black wire to

the right rear speaker’s negative

terminal.

7. Connect the green wire to the left

rear speaker’s positive terminal.

8. Connect the green/black wire to

the left rear speaker’s negative

terminal.

Connecting One Pair of

Speakers

For 12-2155:

If you are using only one

pair of speakers, follow Steps 1

–

4 in

“Connecting Two Pairs of Speakers”

on Page 9 to connect the harness with

the 14-pin connector to the speakers.

For 12-2154:

If you are using only one

pair of speakers, remove the tape that

holds the mounting sleeve in place

and slide the sleeve off of the stereo.

Then set

2CH/4CH

on the bottom of

the stereo to

2CH

. Then follow these

steps to connect the harness with the

14-pin connector to the speakers.

(illus)

12-2154.fm Page 10 Wednesday, July 14, 1999 3:34 PM

1. Connect the gray wire to the right

speaker’s positive terminal. This

terminal is usually marked with a

plus (+) sign or red mark.

2. Connect the violet wire to the right

speaker’s negative terminal. This

terminal might be marked with a

minus (–) sign or it might not be

marked at all.

3. Connect the white wire to the left

speaker’s positive terminal.

4. Connect the green wire to the left

speaker’s negative terminal.

Connecting the Antenna
